Join WorldBoston for an important Diplomacy Now program, looking at the impact of sports on global affairs.
About this Event

Join WorldBoston for our annual Diplomacy Now program - focused this year on the power of sports in diplomacy, called Advancing Global Connection Through Sport.

WorldBoston’s signature public program will be a high-level opportunity to consider American diplomacy in our current global context. With the United States’ status as one of the host countries for the 2026 FIFA World Cup this summer and the future host of the 2028 Olympics, sports diplomacy has become increasingly relevant in American foreign policy. This year's program will look into how sports strengthens international relationships, advances cultural understanding, and connects America with the rest of the world.

Diplomacy Now will feature fireside chats with leaders in sports and international exchange, and will provide insights on subnational diplomacy efforts shaping global connections at the local level right here in Boston.
Taking place in Rabb Hall of the Boston Public Library, this event is free and open to the public and invites a broad audience into an engaging and timely conversation at the intersection of sports and global engagement.

The program will be live-streamed to Zoom from 6:00-7:00 PM. To attend virtually, please register here.

This program is free and open to the public, but advance registration is required.
